Watch and Wait support group on Thursday 18 June

Topic: Surviving and thriving with blood cancer

What does it mean to survive and thrive with blood cancer on watch and wait? For some, it can feel confusing. For others, they may feel stuck in limbo. And because many blood cancers are ongoing, the word โ€œsurvivorโ€ may not feel like it fits.

In this group, we will talk openly about the reality of living with blood cancer when you have not had treatment and find ways to live as well as possible during this time.

Please note, this group is specifically for people who are currently on Watch and Wait and have not had active treatment.

Time:

  • 6:30 PM – 8:00 PM (VIC / NSW / ACT / TAS / QLD)
  • 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM (SA / NT)
  • 4:30 PM – 6:00 PM (WA)

These groups are interactive in nature & your participation is valued.  Where possible, we encourage cameras to be turned on for the session to create a warm and safe environment for all participants.

Group sizes are limited so registration is essential.
